I killed Nicole, OJ tells Oprah
Edited on Fri Jun-24-11 05:19 AM by oberliner
Will OJ Simpson sensationally confess to the murder of his wife Nicole during Oprah’s televised finale spectacular?

According to the Daily Mail, Simpson has already told the talk show queen that he knifed his wife to death in self defence, a revelation he is set to repeat as Oprah wraps up her stint as the world’s premiere talk show host.

Not sure how reliable this is. Probably not very, but anyway...

Edit to add: Subject line is the title of the article.

4. Denying the report does not necessarily mean it isn't true
There is this too, though:

Harpo denies report that O.J. told Oprah he killed ex-wife, friend

2. An Oprah has already "wrapped up her stint as the worlds premier tallk show host"
Last show was around May 25 and there were no guests. Just Oprah talking.

3. He'd never admit it.
But we all know the truth anyway.

5. I guess he didn't get very far in his quest to find "the real killer"
What was the theory? Drug dealers? Mafia?

7. I forget.,
And it seems like his "quest" to find the killer always ended on the back nine at some fancy LA country club.

12. My dad had this running joke about that. Everytime we passed a golf course in the car he'd say
Anybody see OJ?

13. Hasn't seen a golf course in a long time
But I remember seeing him on tv in golf events.

And that book he was supposedly going to write.

Very unseemly.

21. Initially the defense planned a 'drug deal gone bad' strategy
They were going to argue that Nicole and Ron were killed by dealers. But they eventually ditched that for the racist cops defense. I don't think they focused much on the 'real killers' during the trial, preferring just to poke holes in the prosecution's case without coming up with their own theory for the murders. At least that's how I remember it. It has been a while.

I recommend Jeff Toobin's book 'The Run of His Life' for anybody interested in the story.

25. And it is too late now.
I don't think he can be tried twice for the same crime after a verdict has been handed down.

10. Her show is in re-runs
She can still do interviews in another venue if she wanted.

I'm sure a variety of networks would be more than willing to have her do so.

18. At least he's in jail now. Not enough time in his sentence, but better than nothing.

20. He basically already confessed in his "fictional" account "If I Did It".
Hopefully he'll expire in prison.
